CAFTA passed. Sad news for the US farmers and other workers. Well its a good thing the Democrats stood together on this one huh! Not a single Democrat v....

The House vote, supposed to take 15 minutes, dragged on for an hour as negotiations swirled around the floor among GOP leaders and rank-and-file members reluctant to vote for the agreement. In the end, 27 Republicans voted against CAFTA, while 15 Democrats supported it.

Wha? You mean 15 Democrats could have turned the tide on this one, but decided big business is best suited for representation than say the American worker and voter?

OK folks here is the list, you know what to do if you are a constitutent who happens to read this blog:

About Me

I am hoping to trade full time someday. I currently use Price Headley's trading system particularly combining %R and Acceleration bands. I have been following the market for about 5 years now and am determined to be a fulltime trader in the next few years.
I have a MS in Biology and currently work in the Pharmaceutical industry as an Operations Manager for Clinical Trials (as fun as it sounds) and I am more than happy to take a job as a financial analyst covering the Pharma sector.
